Aqua Maris Strong Spray, 30 ml

An anticongestive medicine.

ATX code: R01AX10

Pharmacological properties

Aqua Maris® Strong is a hypertonic sterile sea water solution. The hypertonic solution reduces nasal mucosal edema by removing excess fluid from the intercellular space due to osmotic pressure difference.

It is used in inflammatory diseases of the nose, sinuses and nasopharynx to eliminate mucosal edema, as a “natural decongestant”. It has an antibacterial effect.

Aqua Maris® Strong cleanses viruses and bacteria from nasal mucosa, promotes local immunity and has local anti-inflammatory effect.

Microelements contained in the product improve the function of the pericardial epithelium which increases the resistance of the mucous membrane of the nasal cavity and sinuses to introduction of pathogenic bacteria and viruses.
